"…in the work of Dudley Hardy, whose gay dancing silhouettes, white
on a scarlet ground, did much to enliven the streets and, in the instance
of 'Gaiety Girl' (a musical comedy) series, struck a note more nearly
approaching the French than any previous work in England" (C.
Matlack Price, p.70)
Dudley Hardy was a popular English artist of the Art Nouveau period.
After studying in Dusseldorf, Antwerp and Paris, he became successful
as a magazine illustrator in the 1880s. In the 1890s he received additional
acclaim as an important designer of theater posters. Among his best
known posters were those for Gilbert & Sullivan’s THE YEOMAN OF THE
GUARD (1893) and for the musical comedy A GAIETY GIRL (1894).
